Recently, Farmers' Almanac made the difficult decision to discontinue our forum. While we know many of you were regular users of the forum, it had continued to attract fewer and fewer participants over the previous 2 years and, with only a very small staff available to us to help moderate and respond, had become more and more difficult to fit into our future plans.

To those of you who were regular contributors to the forum, we sincerely thank you and we hope that you will continue to follow and engage us on our main web site and our popular social media sites like Facebook and Twitter.
